Malgré les nombreux périls auxquels le village de St Marcellin en Forez a du faire face, le village recèle de trésors architecturaux comme le Pont du diable, classé monument historique depuis 1921. Il est l'un des ponts les mieux conservés du Forez.
Il se situe à quelques kilomètres du bourg, au lieu dit Vérines. C'est un pont haut et étroit à deux arches datant du XIVème siècle. La Mare est la petite rivière qu'il enjambe. Ce pont semble mener nulle part. Pourtant il a facilité les communications entre la plaine et la montagne car plusieurs voies convergeant vers lui. On pense qu'il facilitait le passage des mulets chargés de chaux extraite à Sury-le-Comtal, en direction du Velay. On n'explique pas autrement la présence d'un pont qui n'était pas vraiment nécessaire au franchissement d'une rivière de cette taille sauf en période de crues, la Mare est une rivière assez capricieuse.
Classé Monument Historique en 1921, le Pont de Vérines connu sous l'appellation "Pont du Diable" ou "Pont Peyrard" franchit La Mare, rivière à régime torrentiel, au débouché des Monts du Forez. Formant un dos d'âne et composé de deux arches, son élan au-dessus de l'eau est impressionnant . L'avant bec de la pile était destiné à réduire les remous et à dévier les corps flottants. Sa hauteur peut indiquer le niveau des crues autrefois.
Ce pont est mentionné dans une charte du Forez au XIVème siècle sous l'appellation 'pont nouveau' et devait donc remplacer un plus ancien. Des moulins existaient au même endroit, leur association avec des ponts étant très fréquente au Moyen-Age. Cependant, nous ignorons leur dispositif d'origine ainsi que leur relation avec le Pont de Vérines. Selon toute vraisemblance ce dernier assurait la mise au sec d'un chemin utilisé pour le commerce de la chaux entre Saint-Marcellin-en-Forez et le Velay.
The Bridge....
Saturday Karen and I made our way to the south end of Heart Lake Conservation Area; The fall is a fickle time. some years the leaves changing colours are okay and others they don't change much at all. some years they last for a long time others a sudden storm and strong winds and its all over.
This is probably the last weekend for shooting fall colours in southern Ontario, the colour display is off the charts, so may varied shades of red, yellow and burnt orange.
this shot is of the bridge in the middle of the park, it is showing signs of its age and will probably be replaced with a much better newer one, but i do love the old worn out version.

Taken last May whilst out on my daily exercise. I love spring/early summer when all the foliage is vibrant and fresh. This particular treeline is always a kaleidoscope of colour.
Thousands of people poured into Manchester City Centre on 24th August 2024 for the annual Pride celebrations.
The streets were filled full of colour as the Manchester Pride parade set off from Deansgate. Taking on a 'Buzzin to be Queer Theme' inspired by the hardworking Manchester bee, 17,000 took part in the parade - the biggest ever number of participants according to Pride bosses.
Held each year, the parade takes place from Deansgate towards the Gay Village and sees thousands of people line the streets to take in the positive vibes of the event and to show unity with the LGBTQ+ community.
As usual, this year’s parade saw drag artists, community groups and allies take part, with the likes of Danny Beard, Tia Kofi, Su Pollard, DJ Paulette, Russell T Davies and Charity Shop Sue amongst some of the famous faces taking part.
Amongst the corporations, community groups and clubs taking part in this year’s parade were the Manchester Runners, George House Trust, Aer Lingus, Moxy Manchester, African Rainbow Family, The Proud Trust, Village Manchester Football Club and Heart radio station.
Speaking about the parade, Mark Fletcher, CEO of Manchester Pride, told the Manchester Evening News: “I am overwhelmed by the turnout of the Parade this year - it is the longest parade we have ever had, and that’s an achievement considering what we’ve had in the past. It’s free for all the community groups and LGBTQ+ organisations to take part, and we always encourage them to take part as much as possible. One of the things I always say is how proud I am of our allies who take part in the parade too.”
Adding about the theme to this year’s parade, Mark said: “We wanted to take the worker bee, which represents Manchester, and adopt that almost in a way that charts the progress of how far we’ve come in terms of LGBTQ+ equality as well as the need to ‘buzz’ the progress on a little bit too. That’s why we created the Progress Bee - we’ve used that symbol as a degree of ownership and identity. It’s part of the fabric of what Manchester stands for, and the support that we’ve had and that so many pioneers have stepped out and pushed the movement forward.
“We wanted to chart it as a hive of progress recognising all of those that have gone before us and those who take the bee on today and march for continued progress.”
A glass of rosé, the title a play on words in tribute to singer-songwriter Don Partridge. Known as the "king of buskers", his debut song 'Rosie' reached No. 4 in the UK singles charts in 1968. The lyric starts:
Rosie, oh Rosie
I'd like to paint your face up in the sky
Sometimes when I'm busy
Relaxing I look up and catch your eye...
I do not want to be famous
I want to have prosperity
build an empire and leave a legacy.

I never saw a moor,
I never saw the sea;
Yet now I know how the heather looks,
And what a wave must be.
I never spoke with God,
Nor visited in Heaven;
Yet certain am I of the spot
As if the chart were given.
Emily Dickinson (1830 - 1886)
This week theme gave me the opportunity to recall one of my favourite novels, Nautical Chart by Arturo Pérez-Reverte,
Loved that book!!
The most challenging was to create and paint the little paper boat, Mary made it for me.
My favourite shot, that doesn't stick to the rules of macro, it's in the comments.
Thank you for you views, favs and comments.

I received a set of fibre-tip pens for my birthday: flic.kr/p/2n9KVGr
A few colours are very close, the caps don't indicate accurately, and the pens aren't labelled or otherwise distinguishable. So I gave them names and made a swatch chart. Fussy perhaps, but enjoyable because I'm obsessed with colour. Now it will be easier to choose the pen I want.
Thank you to everyone who visits, faves, and comments.
Cross-stitch is a popular form of embroidery in which X-shaped stitches are sewn in a tiled pattern to form a picture. I've focussed on a cross stitch chart which is the plans/blueprints for a project.

The National Waterways Museum and floating exhibits.....
Housed in the old Llanthony Warehouse in the heart of what once was the bustling Gloucester Docks, the museum will take you on a whole new journey, charting the 200-year history of the docks and the Gloucester & Sharpness Canal.
The Grade II listed grain warehouse has been renovated, refreshed and rebranded thanks to over £1m from the Heritage Lottery Fund and DCMS/Wolfson Museums & Galleries Improvement Fund.
With fun, interactive exhibits, a café and a museum shop, you'll discover the stories of the communities that lived and continue to thrive here.
Perpetual work in progress.... I'm constant hunting for more rare nonproduction parts to fill in more of the missing colors.
I've been working on this for a few years now, and have displayed it at shows a few times already. But I've reached the point where any additional colors requires taking a gamble on paying shipping from Europe on small BrickLink orders that 75% of the time end up being an incorrect listing.
If anyone has anything I'm missing, feel free to name a price!

Ocean swell patterns in the south pacific were mapped by island natives and represented on things called "stick charts." Stick charts were used for navigation, getting from island to island following wave patterns, and the way they interacted.

Inspired by artwork on a Star Wars Armada upgrade card, a navigation chart table with a Nebulon-B threading through some asteroids.
In 1839 around 10,000 men marched on Newport from all over the adjacent valleys to protest for the rights in their 'Charter', although they were brutally suppressed all these rights except one have been granted in the years since - Our rights have been fought for and died for over the years, we should never take them for granted.
Found in situ was this abandoned summary pie chart from 1968 showing the costs for the year. Clearly, materials and labor makes up the bulk of costs, but is that really the full story?
The Fisk Tire Company was founded in 1898 and headquartered in Chicopee Falls Massachusetts at this now-abandoned office building. The largest and earliest manufacturer of automobile tires by the 1920s, there were Fisk Retail Stores in 40 states; and the Chicopee plant turned out 5,000 tires a day. The Great Depression hit Fisk hard, and its 121 retail tire stores had dwindled to three by 1934. When Fisk transformed into Uniroyal, the Chicopee plant remained its flagship U.S. factory until its closure in 1981. This office building adjoining the office is seven storeys and filled with ornate banisters and entryways, an entire employee cafeteria, and a leather lined executive meeting room.
